Naruto: A parody of the entire ninja world, the opening scene infuriates the Kage.

Chapter 19: Daimyo Allocates Funds, Rasa Continues to Seek Gold

The Land of Wind, Daimyo Prefecture.

The fool was filled with unease, cold sweat poured out uncontrollably, and his legs trembled.

The words spoken by the Third Kazekage on the screen filled him with shock, anger, and fear.

[The Third Kazekage: "Our foolish Daimyo should be careful. One day, our patience will run out, and we'll shut him up forever."]

This is a world of chakra, and it should be ruled by ninjas.

The times call for war, not peace; every generation of the Sand Village should experience the baptism of war at least once.

[The Third Kazekage's adopted son, Sabu, infiltrates the Daimyo's residence, while Advisor Chiyo, armed with puppets and deadly poison, embarks on a mission to assassinate the Daimyo...]

……

What was displayed on the screen was astonishing.

Some disagree, some think about it, and some agree; the opinions vary.

The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, fell into deep thought.

Must the strong rule over the weak? Is this cruelty only felt by the inherently weak?
Pure land.

Madara Uchiha (the undead) did not completely agree with what the Third Kazekage on the screen said, but he did not completely deny it either.

What he saw on the screen made him fall into deep thought.

Infinite Tsukuyomi? A beautiful vision: to create a peaceful world through illusion and prove to Hasilama that Madara is right.

But now, he's starting to waver.

Hashirama Senju (the ghost) frowned. Ninjas above daimyo? This will only cause chaos!
The ideas spread through the light screen are too dangerous.

But he died long ago and is now just a spirit in the Pure Land, unable to do anything.

……

Not only the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, but every Daimyo in the ninja world felt uneasy.

Once a ninja becomes dissatisfied with the status quo and wants to rise above the daimyo, even if all the daimyo unite, they will not be able to defeat him!
Many daimyo are considering this; the situation is dire, so let the daimyo of the Land of Wind take the fall! The light screen is saying that the daimyo of the Land of Wind is a fool.

Suddenly, the light curtain disappeared.

The appearance and disappearance of the light curtain were abrupt, without any warning whatsoever.

However, the influence of the light barrier on the ninja world has not disappeared.

The Sand Village is a topic of much discussion, not only among ninjas but also among ordinary villagers.

A meeting is being held inside the Fengying Building.

For the time being, Rasa has not yet been offered the position of advisor to Chiyo and Ebizo.

However, issuing a warrant for Sasori's arrest and sending people to monitor Chiyo and Ebizo are both necessary.

Furthermore, they may come into contact with Chiyo and Ebizo's positions at any time.

Right now, the Sand Village's Jonin meeting isn't discussing the village's development, but rather the relationship between the village and the Daimyo.

Sunagakure is a ninja village in the Land of Wind, but the foolish Daimyo cut off its funding, forcing Sunagakure to reduce the number of ninjas.

If this continues, Sunagakure will be unable to retain its status as one of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

But assassinating a daimyo?

Or let the Sand Village rule the entire Land of Wind, that... would only make the Sand Village a target of everyone's hatred!
The "one country, one village" system is deeply ingrained in people's minds, and it's not easy to break it.

The 'fan fiction' on the screen not only lowered the intelligence of the ninja world but also enhanced the strength of the Third Kazekage. Even so, he did not act recklessly but instead showed restraint, planning to weaken the strength of the other four major ninja villages and then change the landscape of the ninja world.

Currently, Sunagakure's strength can be considered the weakest of the five great ninja villages. It may be slightly stronger than Kirigakure in the Blood Mist Village, but it is definitely not as strong as Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure.

The idiot king must have been on guard.

Assassinating a daimyo is even more unacceptable.

"Perhaps it's necessary to hold a Five Kage Summit," Rasa murmured to himself.

If the Kage of the five great ninja villages reach an agreement, then changing the ninja world's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall structure or landscape) and letting ninjas rule the world would not be difficult.

The opinions of the small ninja village are insignificant; the daimyo has money, but not much power.

However, managing a village is different from managing a country.

Luo Sha was already at his wit's end with the name of that idiot, and the appearance of the light screen unlocked the shackles on his mind.

However, the attitudes of the other four major ninja villages are still uncertain. Therefore, it is not advisable to act rashly.

……

The camel-drawn cart arrived at the gate of Sunagakure Village, only to find that it was the daimyo's envoy visiting.

It's great to see that the daimyo has allocated funds to Sunagakure.

Rasa was panning for gold using Magnetism outside the village, so he wasn't too surprised to see the daimyo's messenger.

If the village doesn't send ninjas to the daimyo's residence, the daimyo will definitely send someone to Sunagakure.

As for why the daimyo didn't come in person, it's because he's too timid!

Whether the daimyo's envoy intended to provide funds is uncertain, but it is certain that he was testing the Sunagakure's attitude.

At the same time, the daimyo must have also sent people to the other four major countries.

To prevent problems before they occur, it is still necessary to prepare for the worst.

The daimyo must assume that Sunagakure has declared war on him.

Of course, it would be best to stabilize the Sand Village.

To be honest, the daimyo was also somewhat dissatisfied with the one-country-one-village system, believing that the daimyo was the "jade" and the ninja village was only the "shogun".

Therefore, they secretly weakened the ninja villages and cultivated ninjas.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire created some kind of guardian ninja.

But the light screen terrified the lords of various countries.

Does chakra rule this world?

Are ninjas to be above daimyo?
This is terrifying for a daimyo.

In contrast, maintaining the status quo is just fine.

Therefore, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind not only provided funds to the Sand Village, but also gave them some mission assignments, and the ninjas could earn a lot of money by completing the missions.

Compared to the other four major ninja villages, Sunagakure received far less funding and mission assignments this year, but it was still better than nothing.

The daimyo of the Land of Wind also faces difficulties.

Although the Land of Wind has the largest territory among the Five Great Nations, and arguably the largest in the ninja world, most of it is desert, with few resources and a small population. Its economy is not as good as the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, or the Land of Water.

Even some wealthy small countries can now rival the Kingdom of Wind in terms of economy.

It is indeed a bit difficult to get the Daimyo of the Land of Wind to support the ninja village like the other four major nations.

The key issue is that Sunagakure suffered consecutive defeats in several Shinobi World Wars!

It is a waste of manpower and resources.

Furthermore, it seems that the success rate of Sunagakure ninjas in completing missions is not as high as that of the other four major ninja villages!

This time, the daimyo gave Sunagakure 100 million ryo in funding, plus a mission commission with a total reward of 1 million ryo. If the mission is 1% completed, the total reward, including the funding, will be 2 million ryo.

This is for this year; we'll talk about next year's and the year after that.

The Sand Village was quite welcoming to the daimyo's envoy.

But Luo Sha continued panning for gold in the desert.

With the 1 million ryo allocated by the daimyo and the addition of many missions, the village's tight finances were alleviated, and Rasa directly ordered the village to increase the number of ninjas.

Strengthening the village's ninja strength is always the top priority.

……

Konoha.

Hiruzen Sarutobi put down the intelligence report he was holding.

The Daimyo of the Land of Wind allocated funds to Sunagakure and also gave them some mission assignments.

However, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind still entrusted most of the tasks to Konoha.

For Konoha, this only meant the loss of some mission requests.

With a sum of money and more missions to be entrusted, Sunagakure will definitely make considerable progress, but of course, it is still impossible to catch up with Konoha.

He sighed. More important than Sunagakure was to stop the Daimyo of the Land of Fire from overthinking things. It seemed he needed to make a trip to the Daimyo's residence himself.
